Well, it's day three, Betty is still lurking behind the Berlin Wall of the Hen house, Dorothy, Enid and Barbara are still being very mean (OK, I know - it's nature). I've set Betty up with a personal water supply and pellets, a personal apple as she seems to be fixated with the other girl's apple and she kept sneaking out to have a go at it and getting attacked.

At least it's mostly chasing now (and not drawing blood) with Barbara and Dorothy acting as henchwomen for Enid, it's very mafia... They remind me of those knucklehead characters who'll do anything to please the boss.
And to add to my woes, everyone has stopped laying.

If only they'd all settle down, it was so peaceful before!
